The machine looks powerful, but they ought to upgrade the spokesman.
Wonder how loud the box is will all those fans
Wonder how hot it runs, too
#5, it’s hot enough that when Apple stuffs one in a MacBook it will overheat, short circuit, and cause the device to shut down randomly. The rest of us will be just fine.
On another note, does anyone know whether our OS’s and software even benefit from extra cores?
Wow, eight AMD cores in one computer. I guess my dream will finally come true. I’ll never have to run the furnace ever again!
That’s what I’m going to get. Less the video cards – but with 8 gigs of memory. I’m just going to have to wait till they stabilize.

But the power !!!
That’s ridonculous…
Say what you want Intel fanboys, AMD knows how to create the ultimate platform. And if you’re doing the sort of thing this beast was designed for who cares about the heat. if it’s to much for you girls, go get a gateway from bestbuy. and make sure to put down the toliet seat when you pee.
